Snow Happy Hearts for August

August is a month that’s hard to define. It’s in-between holidays and still controlled by heat waves here in the US. It’s the month I hope hurries by. So what’s a snowman to do during the month of August? Mine is going to the beach! It’s time for some play this month and he’s ready.

If you’ve been thinking about pre-ordering a Merci la Vie quilt kit, now is the time to do it. Moda gets the award for beautiful kits and the Merci la Vie kit is no exception! These will be arriving soon from Moda! They are gorgeous!

I’ll be talking more about this quilt during the month of August. It’s been hand appliqued by some very special women, and I’m going to donate it to the American Cancer Society.

mimi'sdarlins-Once again, you’ve created such a darling snowman….I wonder what his secret is that keeps him from melting on the beach :) I’m saving all these patterns and think I’ll make a sweet quilt for a special grandbaby…oh wait, then I’ll certainly need to make more than one!ReplyCancel

Sandy M-I could not agree more on your assessment of the Moda Kits.
No one does kits like Moda. The only problem is that you will probably never see the kit made into a quilt, because the packaging is so gorgeous you don’t want to open it!!ReplyCancel

Barb R. -Snow Happy Hearts August is so cute (I know, I say that every month!!) – that little pail & sand shovel are so perfect for the beach and I love how a snowman can keep “cool” at the beach, too!!

Merci La Vie is gorgeous – you are so generous to donate this quilt ( but your generosity is no surprise to us!). You are truly such an inspiration!!ReplyCancel

Hildy -Love this little snowman and love the beach! But I hope he’s not melting in the august sun (I’m almost melting … good I’m not a snowman;-)ReplyCancel

Christine B.-Thank you for another lovely pattern Anne! Looking forward to getting started…. have a couple of other projects to finish off first though! :) xReplyCancel

sunny-Ah yes, a snowman making sandcastles on the beach. What could be more perfect for August. Thanks for the cute design…..ReplyCancel

LindaSonia -Hmmm…. I can’t get the snowman to print…. anyone else having the same problem??ReplyCancel

Yes, that’s the problem with kits and precuts. They’re so darn cute, you hate to even open them. ;)ReplyCancel

Janet Melanson -Thank you so much for another great snow person……I was very fortunate to get a fat quarter bundle of your new Christmas/winter fabric at my LQS here in Kingston, Ontario, Canada :)ReplyCancel

Joanne Moore -Thank you Anne! this one is so darling. (Aren’t they all)I think I will hot glue some tiny shells to place in the bucket! I love collecting tiny shells and this will make a cute beach house decoration!ReplyCancel

Susan -Thanks for the snowman! Love the sand pail and shovel!! Perfect for August–we just got back from the beach and have one more quick trip planned in a couple of weeks!ReplyCancel

Karen in Breezy Point -It looks like the kit comes in a beautiful box–how fun! Love the beachy snowman–sand buckets are so cute!ReplyCancel
